The makers of "Four Last Things" present us with a new politically incorrect and morally highly reprehensible Point-and-Click-Adventure, consisting of animated paintings of the Renaissance, biting, deep black humor in the tradition of Monty Python and the viciousness of a bullying 9-year-old who didn´t get his pills. Pure blasphemy - I love it!

ZERO Sievert

... a prepare to die simulator



Zero Sievert is a 2D extraction survival loot shooter and can be seen as the spiritual child of "Escape from Tarkov" and the "S.T.A.L.K.E.R." series. Each run takes place in one of several areas you can choose from, which are procedurally generated and therefore always slightly different. The gathered loot can be brought to safety at one or more extraction points. In case of a virtual death, you lose everything except for the gear and items you brought to the raid. As a plus, spent ammo, consumable items and sustained injuries are not counted and you just freshly restart your run. Weapons, armor and food can be bought, crafted, repaired and modified in the base, which you can also expand according to your own needs and playstyle. In addition, several quest givers provide us with new tasks.



+ choose from 6 different basic equipment sets at the beginning
+ great variety of weapons which can be customized with improvements from silencers and scopes to magazines
+ several armors, radiation suits and backpacks
+ decide which upgrade stations you´ll build
+ different specializations for attributes that always can be changed
+ day and night cycle - requires different tactics and equipment e.g. night vision
+ many quests with (sometimes) great rewards
+ an atmosphere of permanent threat
+ extremely demanding survival aspect - the supply with food and water, sleep and radiation have a great impact on your character's constitution, the learning curve is steep, unforgiving and finally the AI is deadlier and more precise than John Wick. However this plus is very subjective as it matches my gaming preferences!
+ the only reason for even more virtual death is your greed for more loot - so it's a constant weighing of whether you're willing to lose what you've collected so far and I highly recommend leaving with items you were looking for because the game is ruled by the rng gods!


+/- ZS is currently in Early Access. I recommend storing it on a SSD, this shortens the long loading times, some bugs appear regularly and there is some balance work to be done.


- at this point I could mention how disproportionately difficult Zero Sievert is, especially during the first hours - but I don't. I've seen a lot of negativity in forums and discussions about this topic. Personally, I like ZS the way it is, despite its teething problems. It's one of those very demanding trial and error games. You're going to die a lot. For me though, that's where the appeal lies. It's incredibly satisfying because each and every success feels well earned. I´m neither a fanboy nor member of the hardcore "git gud" crowd because ZS has its flaws and definitely needs some finetuning. I´m just convinced that not every game has to be for everybody and not every game needs to be bent in its core idea to please everybody - you either like it or not. And just for the record - as an old fart my reflexes are in a downward spiral, so there´s even more virtual death for me!



If you like fighting for your success and think that progress has to be earned to feel a sense of value, if you enjoy an atmosphere of constant threat, a steep learning curve and don´t care about dying a lot, this game is for you. Rarely have I experienced such a demanding and simultaneously satisfying game. And since ZS is still in EA, I´m very excited for new content and where the journey goes. Good luck, hunters!
